"The Solution"

Finally they got the Singles problem under control, they made it scientific. They opened huge Sex Centers - you could simply go and state what you want and they would find you someone who wanted that too. You would stand under a sign saying I Like to Be Touched and Held and when someone came and stood under the sign ( Read more... )

I could not tell I had jumped off that bus,
that bus in motion, with my child in my arms,
because I did not know it. I believed my own story:
I had fallen, or the bus had started up
when I had one foot in the air.

I would not remember the tightening of my jaw,
the irk that I’d missed my stop, the step out
into the air, the clear child
gazing about her in the air as I plunged
to one knee on the street, scraped it, twisted it,
the bus skidding to a stop, the driver
jumping out, my daughter laughing
Do it again.

I have never done it
again, I have been very careful.
I have kept an eye on that nice young mother
who lightly leapt
off the moving vehicle
onto the stopped street, her life
in her hands, her life’s life in her hands.

this is the best fucking review of shortbus that olds has ever written. you are too fucking young for me, mrs. fuck you, but still i ask you with ardent certainty longing and fucking madness: When are we fucking getting married to add some significance to these fucking names we use...

i had a friend who would say, is it love or is it the two of you against the world. for a long time i believed him, agreed with him, felt scolded and admonished. now i say, show me something more real, or in other words whats the fucking difference...

how fucking old ARE you, mr. fuck you? because there's lolita. also, when we get married depends on where you want to honeymoon. if you pick a bad place, we can't tie the knot until you change your mind. see? it's all very logical.

sometimes there's a difference, but other times there's not. there should be a difference at least once, flaring up occasionally? just enough so that you know it's there. is my arguably age-limited experience of this phenomenon so far. but my answer could change tomorrow.

i think you'll like some songs i'm going to post shortly.

with fucks for all & all for fucks,
mrs. fuck you
